I don't know him. Never really talked to him. So I didn't have an opinion, really, other than the site turned to crap, and I was hearing from others that he's been MIA. Glad he stepped up to refunded for you (and me). However, I'd gladly give the $25 back if only to keep the site archived so we could see old posts (all the knowledge lost makes me very sad).
I've tried to access old threads to save photos, etc.., and it won't even let me into the forum whatsoever.

The old site seems back up. I'm glad... for archival reasons. There are years of vast chip knowledge that this other site contains. However, I'm not sure how this other site can maintain short term credibility, or long term viability. What? Are we all supposed to go back and forget all that's happened? I don't really know. Sounds like Greg is trying to the right thing, but that boat might have sprung a few too many leaks to allow it to sail reliably?
I personally have been a PCF member for a while now, and have always thought the site was way better run, and free. When I made comments on the other site about the cost of classifieds and such, I got severely flamed ("how dare I question Greg's moniterization of the site")... Now, seems like everyone is singing a different tune.
This site is actually way better. It doesn't have the history of CT, but the one thing it was lacking was a bigger user base, which is seems to have now.
Game on!
